24 baptisms on the 24th?

This week was another great week. We are extremely busy these
days. We have appointments every hour of the day. Not much time to
do finding on our own. Yet we are still teaching new people every
week. Why? Because the Lord is blessing us, and our members are
doing the finding for us. Just the way it should be. It is really
exciting. Seriously, this week our recent convert, Brother Zhou!!!
Called us and said, come to my house, there are two people here who
want to join the church! So, of course we went, and we put them on
date for the 24th of October  These miracles amaze me every day.
This week while planning we were discussing all of the people we are
teaching, and we decided we would put most everybody we are teaching
on date for the 24th of October! We already have eight people with a
baptismal date of the 24th of October, and we are planning on putting
on 9 more this week! So, we should have 17 people preparing to be
baptized on 24th of October. And we shared this in district meeting
this week, and the district is excited about it, so they are also
going to push and put everyone on date for the 24th of October. So,
as a district our Big Hairy Audacious Goal is to have 24 people be
baptized on the 24th of October. How cool would that be! That is the
goal, but realistically, it might not happen. But on our side with 17
people on date for the 24th, we are bound to get a few out of it. The
goal we turned into the mission president for the month of October was
3. So out of the 17 plus people with a date for October, we should
far exceed our goal! Exciting, huh? I’m sure your prayers and
support will help us to achieve our goals! We are very excited about
the work! Coming into this area, everyone told me it was a dead area,
and they had considering closing it at one point. Really? This is an
amazing area! The best area I have been in! So much potential in
this area! I really think I will get to see my goal of seeing 20
baptisms before I go home. On this coming Sunday we will be having 4
of our investigators getting baptized! We can’t wait! The work is
great. I am loving every minute of it. On a lighter note, this week
my companion made fish this week, only the entire fish! So, I ate
every part of it, the head, the eyeballs, everything. Interesting.
Not too bad. So, that was this week. Thanks for reading.
